    Shannon, it doesn't sound like she respected you as a friend, co-worker, or boss. A true friend wouldn't take advantage of the situation like that. Heck, her actions show little respect for her job and herself, in that she didn't honor the commitment she made by taking the job. So try not to be too hard on yourself. You couldn't carry her weight forever and you shouldn't have had to in the first place.

    Dear family member around whom the world revolves,

    *nnnggghhhh* no, most people do not love "fixing up their houses" i.e. painting windows and fixing roofs and repairing stuff that breaks, while you are a singular individual far above such smallminded and bourgeois interests. We fix them because we like having windows and roofs that don't leak, and stuff that isn't broken.

    Heal up, fast, snap! Everyone I know who has had their GBs removed has ended up feeling SO much better after the surgery. Hope you will too!

    Snap - hope your feeling much better soon!

    Dear Doctor,

    Why are you always not working when I actually need to call for advice? I think my dog bite wounds are fine, but it would be nice to have some confirmation of that before the big ride I have planned for this PM and my venture into fire road riding with my Jamis tomorrow...

    Oh well, hope you and your family have a nice long weekend!

    Dear Mother Nature, I'm really sorry to be taking down these trees. I really hate to do it, but they're damaging our roof and are just way too close to our house. Please forgive me. And please help the men who are taking them down so that they don't fall on them or my house.

    Dear whoever-decided-this:

    Did you have to move Dominique Strauss-Kahn a half block from me? Is it not enough that we have dealt with rebuilding the World Trade Center for ten years?

    And if it really is true that residents of the luxury hotel where he was originally supposed to go objected to the media, etc -- why is it supposed to be okay with us?

    Looking forward to your prompt reply.

    Thanks for the well wishes ladies. I can already tell the difference, no heartburny feeling! I'm sore where the little incisions were made, 4 in all. If it gets too bad I pop a vicodin and fall asleep.

    Drugz are good!

    Snappy! In my years here and on RBR, I'm not sure I've ever seen a picture of your face. Your toes, yes, and Chloe of course, but not you! I'm glad you're smiling! Yay for painkillers! Keep on healing! Brian sends his xxx/ooo, too!

    Meethinks Snap is enjoying the pain killers. Either that or they're making her silly

    Hope you get to feeling better! And heal quickly.

    Snap - Do NOT go out for pizza for a while, it takes a little time to figure out how your body is going to handle the loss of the gall bladder... and it can be REALLY embarrassing until it does. Trust me on this.
